Thanksgiving Point

On Saturday we headed down for a day at Thanksgiving Point. Colin likes "dinos" so we thought we'd take him to the dinosaur museum. He had a good time. He had fun looking at the "dino bones". He loves rocks so he even found the fossils pretty interesting. They had some interactive exhibits that were really fun for him.



There was a space exhibit that had a lot of interactive displays about light. Colin obviously didn't understand the science of them but he still had fun. We used this one to practice colors.









One of the interactive exhibits was this big "sandbox" where kids can pretend to be searching for dinosaur bones. They have these paintbrushes that you dust off the bones with. Colin had a lot of fun with it.







The other interactive one that he really liked was this water/sand exhibit. You were supposed to be digging in the sand searching for these little plastic dinosaurs. Colin mostly just enjoyed throwing the dinos in the water.




After the museum we had lunch and then headed over to walk through some gardens. It was really pretty and we took a few family pictures.











After pictures we ended the day getting some ice cream. It was a really fun morning. I think we all enjoyed it.
